I don't mean this as a dig at the lad, he's a very successful footballer, but is Ben McDonnell really the 3rd best MF in Tyrone? He's the only MF named among the subs. There's a fairly steep drop off in quality among those subs, Harte and McElholm aside. I suppose Dublins subs are as bad if not in fact a bit weaker than ours.

There's a fair few lads who have been great footballers and an a few who could become great footballers but the bench doesn't stand out in the way Galway's or Armagh's do.

Galway have a bench of comer, Culhane, Molloy and Cooke. Armagh can call on Mackin, mc Kay, mc cabe, Duffy, Hughes, Callum O'Neill and hall. It's a fairly incredible bench.

To be fair he was the only midfielder today. Conn Kilpatrick how he lasted 70mins I will never know

Under strength apart from loughran munroe and Allison who is to come back.

What way is this league semi going to go? Wouldn't matter now if they were given another week as they'd be crazy to risk any of their first team against Carrickmore with an All-Ireland up for grabs. Most likely they'll field the Reserves?
And will Carrickmore clap them going into the field if they were to play their first team?

Will we f**k. What sort of woke nonsense is this?

Look forward to you lot clapping our gaelic for dad's and lads onto the pitch next weekend that will make it even better

Another week another bullshit red to save EC.

Aye, leading with an elbow to the head is mighty craic most weeks.

Mistimed shoulder ffs. Barely touched him

What a clown you are deserved red. You be the sort of man to say nothing happened on the armagh trip too.

See the Division 1 semi between Errigal and Carrickmore is fixed for 15th Dec which means at least the competition will be finished by Christmas.

Surely Errigal are entitled to a 2 week break like every other team got before their next play off game?

If errigal win ulster it will be the thirds playing that final

Might be the thirds playing it anyway. Would they really have the appetite for that after Ulster run? A ridiculous game.

Maybe Errigal should play their thirds against Kilcoo since they are going to lose anyway. Or maybe the county board could give Errigal the same break we have had to get ready for this league semi-final. Joke.

Sounds like someone had a few lemons today. The league was over in September we won it.

Just rewatching the game here now on TG4 and before half time TK must have given away 4 fouls after picking up his first yellow as well as throwing R. Canavan to the ground on the 29th minute (not much to it but still tells you what you need to know). That's not counting the foul on Harte at the very start of the second half. So within 35 mins odd he's got a yellow and committed another 4/5 fouls on top of it. It might have been a soft enough yellow but he can have no complaints after all that and in fairness he didn't give out to the ref when he was lined. Must have known he was on the edge. Would like for all the Armagh ones to watch and tell that he didn't deserve to go with all the fouling he did

Will hold my hands up and say
 I didnt notice the other fouls he made and was judging the red on the second yellow card offence alone. However, my issue with the ref wasnt the decisions he made, rather the ones he didnt.

Take off the rose tinted glasses the man accumulated about 14 fouls so there is no excuse really. He got what he eventually deserved.

As for the ref the decisions he made both ways was poor. For anyone to say he went against CE clearly weren't at the game.

Pulls the shorts that's a definite and definite penalty. the lurgan celtic dive that followed was pathetic

Winter football and teams that are operating at a high level will mean theres unlikely to be much more than a kick of a ball either way. (Kilcoo vs Scotstown would be the exception not the rule). Will come down to the fine margins, a bit of luck and who shows up on the day.

Kilcoo probably slight favourites for me but EC have the talent to hurt them. There will definitely be big plans for the Canavans anyway- I'd say the abuse TK got will look like an underage game by the time Kilcoo are finished with them!

What abuse did TK get? The man made about 14 fouls throughout game he was lucky to even be on the pitch at the time he was eventually sent off

Errigal will need the ref to help them in the final they looked leggy.

Kilcoo showed what level they can play to last night

Course they were leggy. No harm but Kilcoo are able to cruise to a final every year. Errigal don't have that luxury. Could've lost the first round, replay in the second round, went to the wire in the semi and the same in the final, week turn around then for the Eunans game

Kilcoo have developed a habit of cruising past county champions too.

Not standing up for Down football btw. But I'm pretty sure Burren, Carryduff wouldn't be long picking up a Tyrone title if they were moved.

Your right they might win an intermediate title. Not a chance they would touch the top 6 teams in tyrone

Most people probably thought Trillick would win the back to back including myself. Fair play to Errigal. To be fair to Sean Hurson tonight, he let a lot go which always makes for a better game.

Carrickmore still waiting on Errigal for the league semi final. The Clarkes will be waiting another while yet.

Hope you enjoyed getting the medal at half time.

Do you want the medal? No space in any of my pockets for any more.

Nah as its 19 years since your last one and it looks like next one wont be too soon so enjoy next few years of centenary celebrations. Last night must of hurt for you. Roasted in many county final then your near rival winning again. Throw in you never got senior job in carmen

What has that Ref seen there to gift that penalty an absolute joke what a clown

Campbell is historically poor and listens to the crowd more so than trusting his gut, Errigal very nearly robbed for a replay there based on his decision

Oisin McCann fouled for the first penalty. Nathan Donnelly also fouled for the second. Had the jersey near pulled off him. Both decisions correct.

Good luck to Errigal in Ulster. And good luck to Donaghmore for the All-Ireland Club title by 2030.

19 years and counting

[Fella is a complete buffer]

The square ball podcast with niall morgan was a great listen. Very insightful in terms of harte, current tyrone team and how respected Peter Donnelly is.

I thought the complete opposite, saying players weren't injured or faking. If he was a real leader he would of called it out at the time. Fella is a complete buffer loves the air time

Joke of a comment, Tyrone's best all time GK and a hugely committed player

Felt the interview was a good listen, honest without being dickish, doesn't have an axe to grind, just want to get the best out of himself teammates and win big

No denying he is a great GK but I felt the way he spoke about other players who may or may not come back was poor.

Paul Devlin in?

Applications are valid until Tuesday.
Paul Devlin has submitted his interest.
For over 20 years now Tyrone have had a policy where suggessful underage county managers graduate to the senior role.

Deviating from that policy to employ at outside man, who has no more love for Tyrone than he would for Derry, Kerry or anyone else, at a ransom of money doesn't seem likely and I don't think that it would sit right with any true Gael to disrepect our own people that way, what message would that be from the county board to future underage management teams.

Such nonsense
